Substitution into x , y rules

eg., the rule y=3x+2 means times your x value by 3 and then add 2 .
If you were given this table of x values then
y=3x+2 y=3x+2
x y y=3xx+ x y
1 1 5
2 = 3x + 2
2 y=3x1+ 2 8
3 2=3+2= 3 11
4 5 4 14
y=3x2+
Do the same for these
2 = 6tables
+ 2 = as in the example above . You might find it
useful to fold your 8page in half and to draw your table one side and do the
working out on the yother
= 3 x. 3 +
2=9+2=
y=2x+1 11 y=2x+4 y=2x+5

Extension questions
What do you notice about the patterns made by these rules .
Could you find a way of getting the rule if you just knew the x and y
values ?
